The Remnant with Jonah Goldberg

The Dispatch

News

Frequency: 1 episode/3d. Total Eps: 1184

In “The Remnant," Jonah Goldberg enlists a “Cannonball Run”-style cast of stars, has-beens, and never-weres to address the most pressing issues of the day. Is America doomed? Has liberalism failed? And will mankind ever invent something better than ‘90s-era “Simpsons?” Mixing political history, pop culture, rank punditry, and shameless book-plugging, Goldberg and guests will have the kinds of conversations we wish they featured on TV. And the nudity will (almost) always be tasteful. Brace your bingo cards.

What’s Wrong With Kids These Days? | Interview: Daniel A. Cox

Wednesday, October 14, 2026 • Duration 01:08:55

Old men griping about the new generation is an old, venerable tradition, and Jonah Goldberg can grouse with the best of them. Unlike the other old men, however, Jonah gets to talk to one of the few people who can actually answer the question, “What’s wrong with the kids these days?” and back it up with data. The American Enterprise Institute’s Daniel Cox joins The Remnant to take us on a whirlwind tour of the gender divide, cultural expectations, parenting, LinkedIn, generational change, attention infidelity, TV, dating, sexting, teenagehood, social media, surveillance culture, porn, OnlyFans, incels, the manosphere, social malaise, third places, chivalry, class, and preaching what you practice. Show Notes: —Generation Uncoupled: America's New Gender Divide and the Crisis of Human Connection —GQ - “The Laptop Boyfriends Can’t Stop Watching YouTube in Bed” —Rob Henderson Remnant —Jonah’s G-File: “I Think We’re Turning Japanese … I Really Think So” —Wired - “I Went Undercover as a Secret OnlyFans Chatter.

Wednesday, October 7, 2026 • Duration 01:15:56

The Scientific Republic | Interview: Tony Mills

Wednesday, September 30, 2026 • Duration 01:03:46

Dear listeners: For years, you’ve been asking us to get Bill Nye the Science Guy on The Remnant, and we have heard you. Today, we are pleased to present … Wait, what? Oh, I see. Apologies, listeners, but we appear to have had a bit of a mix-up. I’m sorry to say that Bill Nye wasn’t available, and instead the booking agency has sent *checks notes* Tony Mills! While Tony is sadly unwilling to drop Mentos into a 2-liter bottle of soda and stand over it with his mouth open (yes, we did ask), he is absolutely willing to bring the heat on science, AI, and the doom of humanity. Listen in to hear Tony and Jonah Goldberg discuss science funding, the politicization of research, COVID-19, historical reactions to pandemics, germ theory, gatekeeping, algorithms, romanticism, and (P)doom.

Feelin’ A Little Irish | Ruminant

Saturday, September 26, 2026 • Duration 15:10

You remember the scene: Robert Deniro’s wife screaming at him in their apartment for being a jerk about the steak and flipping the kitchen table; Joe Pesci trying to calm them down; the neighbor calling them a bunch of animals; Deniro threatening to eat the neighbor’s dog. It’s exactly what you expect from director Martin Scorsese. But you know what it’s not? It’s not what Jonah Goldberg expected to find himself in the middle of after walking in the door the day the Stephanie Slade Remnant aired. What’s that? You want more context? Well then you’re just going to have to tune in to this rager of a Ruminant, wherein Jonah not only recounts his domestic dust-up over drag queen story hour but dives deep into Trump Derangement Syndrome, Xi Jinping at the White House, the autopen incident, Nikole Hannah-Jones, progressives, teachers unions, Nick Kristof and the rape dogs, Macklemore and Israel, Jonah going woke, rationalism vs reason, family, fusionism, the Western Massachusetts lesbian bar, and how we’re all both conservatives and liberals.

‘This Is Western Civilization, Bro’ | Interview: Stephanie Slade

Wednesday, September 23, 2026 • Duration 01:17:09

What can and can’t the government do? Can it ban softball on Sundays? Or perhaps prohibit little old ladies from having Bible study at the local library? What about drag queen story hour? Can it—horror of horrors—tell you that you have to mow your lawn? Joining The Remnant to help us sort through these thorny political thickets is Stephanie Slade, author of a popular new book about fusionism. Listen in as Stephanie and Jonah Goldberg cover the dissident right, Frank Meyer, Brent Bozell, liberalism, libertarianism, virtue, and everything in between.
